OUR METHODOLOGY
A search Assignment follows a clear tried and
tested course.
· Understand
the client
We have detailed discussions with the Client, so that our consultant
not only knows the technical requirements of a role but also understand the
client organisation, its culture, challenges and opportunities to ensure
there is a lasting fit and the attractions of the role are fully
understood.
· Position
Profile
We write a full position profile including candidate profile, and
likely career background and skill sets and get consent from the client
before commencing the search.
· Parameters
Agreed.
During the discussion with the client we review and agree any target
companies or markets of particular interest and address compensation and
culture issues.
· Evaluation
Candidates are approached by our consultants in absolute confidence
and, where appropriate, they are met to discuss the opportunity, the scope
for advancement and their ‘fit’ for the role. This may necessitate several
discussions with the candidates.
·
A Short List
We present our client a list of the most suitable individuals, together
with a background report on the various candidates on the Target List and
the short listed candidate report contains detailed biographies and our
consultant’s suggestions. Our opinions are expressed forthrightly and
without bias or conflict.
· Client
Interviews
Our consultant works with the client to arrange and plan the interview
process. We work closely with both the client and the candidates to ensure
each party gets feedback and reflections from the other and the
post-interview debriefs are an essential and delicate part of the process.
·
Engagement
We assist the client in the parameters of an offer letter and the offer
stage is the most sensitive in the process. Our candidates are invariably
highly valued by their current employer and the majority of offers result
in counter bids and Jolly Consultants have many years experience in
managing candidate psychology by addressing the likelihood in advance with
the candidate and canvassing their reaction to a counter offer or a variety
of competing offers.
Due to our in depth market knowledge and close
relationships with our clients, our Consultants often arrange preliminary
peer-to-peer meetings between clients and candidates where our consultants
have identified reciprocal benefits. In this sense they can often find a
Candidate the job they want in the absence of a specific mandate.
VALUE & PHILOSOPHY
JOLLY CONSULTANTS has a clear commitment to
treating clients, candidates and colleagues in a professional, honest and
ethical manner at all times.
Our internal code in respect to candidate and
client confidentiality is absolute.
Because most of the time, we are working
closely with our client companies, getting their consent and keep them
appraised, it is rare for conflicts of interest to arise. Where they do, we
address them forthrightly and transparently.
In making candidate information available to
our clients we do so in detail and without bias.
It’s our focus on and reputation for
confidentiality, good faith, trust and absolute discretion, which has
enabled us to have direct access to the most successful and effective
candidates in the region.
Trust. Our
business has been built on the long-term relationships we have nurtured with
both our corporate clients and candidates. We believe such relationships
must be based on integrity, trust, and mutual respect.
Teamwork. We become a
partner with our clients, working with you as a member of your management
team to help you achieve your objectives in meeting clearly defined
staffing needs.
Excellence. We are
committed to excellence and pride ourselves in being thorough in our search
and in our follow-through.
Communication. Our
experience has proven that the sharing of information...open communication
between the direct hiring official, the coordinating human resources
representative, the candidate, and Marketing Consultants Inc....is
essential to mutual success.
Selectivity. In
proposing candidates to clients, we believe in quality over quantity. We
present only candidates that we truly believe can do the job. We have a
personal interest in our candidates' career success as well as a solid
commitment to meeting our clients' needs.
Insight. We are
experienced at understanding our clients business, corporate environment,
and management style. We believe that chemistry and personality fit are as
critical to a successful match as the candidate's other credentials.
Discipline. We are
extremely result-oriented. We approach our assignments in a disciplined
manner that closely parallels the way our client companies create solutions
to marketing problems.
